Home directory permissions

You can set up a user's home directory with a Windows ACL or with POSIX mode bits, which are then converted into a synthetic ACL. The method by which a home directory is created determines the initial permissions that are set on the home directory.

When you create a local user, the user's home directory is created with mode bits by default.

For users who authenticate against external sources, you can specify settings to create home directories dynamically at login time. If a home directory is created during a login through SSH or FTP, it is set up with mode bits; if a home directory is created during an SMB connection, it receives either mode bits or an ACL. For example, if an LDAP user first logs in through SSH or FTP, the user's home directory is created with mode bits. If the same user first connects through an SMB share, the home directory is created with the permissions indicated by the configured SMB settings. If the --inheritable-path-acl option is enabled, an ACL is generated; otherwise, mode bits are used.
